Italy by Dr Prem

Italy, the country that has witnessed a strong wave of renaissance art has innumerable attractions forming a prime travel photography destination. The historical monuments and the pristine beaches draw the admiration of millions of tourists throughout the year but the most striking object of travel photography is no doubt the Grand Canal running through Venice, the capital city of Italy forming an awesome network of water traffic interconnecting various corners of the city. The bridge running over the water canals and the buildings bordering the water canal reveal spectacular medieval architecture much to the delight of a travel photographer. Italy by Dr Prem

Life is a ball--only that it is a mask-ball with thousands of unknown secrets and known twists. We are all playthings in the hands of time yet we barely know what turn to take. Shielded and shrouded in mystery, life is never as we know it-- much like the partner at a masquerade carnival--it tempts, excites but also worries us for risk of being let down--betrayed!

This iconic monument reminds us how strength can help you take up the world all alone. The tiny bird pictured around reveals that the strongest men need some company to lift the world but yes, they can do it--when they want!

Life is Venice is down to Earth. It is basic but it is fulfilling. The architecture withstands the ravages of time and the people withstand the blows of life. The result is -- an amalgamation of bright spirits with humble homes!

Venice offers sharp contrasts. It is simple but strong. It is cleverly designed but exposed to dangers. Perhaps that is why the whites and the reds stand out so strong against each other while being together in time.

The regal structure reminds us of the glory that was Italia in the earlier times. The boulevard reminds us of the present and the alley like length reminds us of the future that is uncertain yet worth working towards!
